Sažetak
The paper investigates the putative changes in the production of judicial space in the Margraviate of Istria following the introduction of Venetian jurisdiction. Specifically, it deals with the alterations to the script upon which the ritualized theatre of public justice administration was performed. The first part focuses on the production of space and the aspects of continuity and change in the former Margraviate of Istria. Henri Lefebvre’s influential theoretical paradigm on space production is used as a conceptual framework for this part. The second part compares these patterns of change with the situation in Friuli, the central possession of the Patriarchate that became a part of the Venetian Dominium in 1420, since both regions administered justice in a similar manner, through the per a(d)stantes procedure. It is concluded that the Venetian notion of Istria as a distinct region, separate from Friuli, played an important role in the employed modality of change pertaining to justice administration and, consequently, the production of judicial space.
